What is a Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. They provide a stable foundation for replacement teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures, allowing them to look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
Why Choose Dental Implants?
Permanent Solution
Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, dental implants are a long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. With proper care, they can last a lifetime.
Improved Oral Health
Dental implants help preserve jawbone density and prevent bone loss, which can occur when teeth are missing. They also promote better oral hygiene by making it easier to clean and maintain your teeth and gums.
Natural Look and Feel
Dental implants are custom-designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, providing a seamless and natural-looking smile.
Enhanced Functionality
Dental implants function like natural teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. You can enjoy your favorite foods without worrying about discomfort or instability.
Preservation of Adjacent Teeth
Unlike traditional bridges, dental implants do not require adjacent teeth to be modified or compromised for support. This helps preserve the integrity of your remaining natural teeth.
Our Dental Implant Process
1. Consultation
During your initial consultation, our experienced dentists will evaluate your oral health, discuss your treatment goals, and determine if dental implants are the right option for you.
2. Treatment Planning
We will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs, including the number of implants needed, the type of restoration, and any additional procedures required.
3. Implant Placement
The dental implants will be surgically placed into the jawbone during a minor surgical procedure. We use advanced techniques and technology to ensure precise and comfortable implant placement.
4. Healing and Integration
Over the next few months, the implants will fuse with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration, providing a strong and stable foundation for the replacement teeth.
5. Restoration
Once the implants have fully integrated with the jawbone, we will attach custom-made crowns, bridges, or dentures to the implants, completing your smile restoration.

Top 5 Reasons Why You Need Dental Implants
- 1. Severe Tooth Decay or Damage: If a tooth is extensively decayed or damaged and cannot be restored with a filling, crown, or other treatments, extraction followed by a dental implant may be recommended.
- 2. Missing Teeth: When a patient has one or more missing teeth, dental implants offer a permanent and durable solution for replacement. Dentists may suggest implants to restore oral function, aesthetics, and prevent issues associated with tooth loss.
- 3. Failed Root Canal Treatment: If a tooth has undergone root canal treatment but continues to cause problems or becomes infected again, extraction followed by a dental implant may be considered as a long-term solution.
- 4. Periodontal Disease: Advanced gum disease can lead to tooth loss due to bone loss and tissue damage. Dental implants may be recommended to replace missing teeth and restore oral function in patients with severe periodontal disease.
- 5. Stabilising Dentures: For patients who wear dentures and experience issues with stability, discomfort, or difficulty eating and speaking, dental implants can be used to anchor and stabilise the dentures, improving overall function and comfort.
